The Ten Must-Answer Questions to Properly Assess Your IT

If your entire company came to your office all at once and said, “We’ve decided we’re going away for a while. We’re not sure when we’ll be back; could be today, could be tomorrow – and we’re not going to tell you where we’re going or why we’re leaving.”, would you stand for it?

That’s what life can be like for companies who don’t have control of or properly manage their servers, email, printers, or system’s security.

To help you better understand which areas of your technology are most important to you, we’ve put together a list of ten essential questions to help you identify the key areas of your systems you should be focusing on.

In your head (or written down), answer each of these questions on a scale of 1 – 10, with 10 being extremely important, and 1 being not important at all.
